Sewed up the holes and...

Eura Cool (to me) #7...Skirts

Being efficient is key to progress in life.  I've searched eBay and found that you cannot buy this said "efficiency".  Therefore, progress shall elude me for the moment.  While I dawdle, lets talk about fun things like...CLOTHES!

Presently, I am quite addicted to vintage clothing.  The issue is quality.  Many modern clothes (no matter the label) are just not made very well.  Let's pretend that everything is made well.  What would I wear if I could guarantee the workmanship was superb??  Ohhhhh, this is going to be fun!!


...Afghani Skirt (TavinShop) - I never thought I would be a skirt girl.  I am.  I am a skirt girl.  Girly girl?  *crickets singing*  Although, there's nothing wrong with that sort (thatIwilladdress).  I am NOT that girl.  The perfection of this skirt is initially in the length,  then shape, and finally...color.  Boots in winter, flats in autumn, sandals in spring, and barefoot in the summer.  This skirt is sinless...thus perfect, and cool.

...Cotton Midi Skirt (MrsPomeranz) - Does it make sense when I say that I do not watch MAD MEN, but I watch the clothes?  Clothing was proper, and respectable in that era.  Midi skirts deserve respect.  Coverage is perfect, yet not excessive (cool, non?).  My dream realized is if this skirt has pockets.  It is made to order (the dream could come true), which meets superb workmanship requirement.  Heels, flats, sandals or bare feet?

...Vintage Crochet Skirt Pattern (PastPerfectPatterns) - Third grade was my introduction to the art of crochet.  Do I know how to crochet?  If third grade counts, then SURE I DO!  If not, then I believe my focus should be on someone who can because this is a NEED (equivalent with oxygen and water intake).  The length...the fit...is amazing (dare I say...cool).  Imagine this in bright colors?  Monochromatic?  With boots? Sandals? Flats? BARE FEET!?!?!?!?

I must return to my task of UNLOADING inventory ($5 can get you in on this sale).  Meanwhile, I will be minding the store or FACEBOOK (come LIKE us).

Inspiration vs. Pinspiration

I'm not gonna lie.  I'm supposed to be creating right now.  The gigantic pile of un-crafted is giving me the stink eye. (If it were alive. More like a judge-y energy.)  Meanwhile, I've got bigger pins to find.  Pinterest is my arch nemesis, and my inspiration.  

Things like this fall onto my radar...

I will get back to work, or I will go to bed.  There is so much to do...

Eura Cool (to me) #4

I like art.  It's subjective, expressive and cool.  I am mostly drawn to the kind that I like to look at (I'm not that deep).  My relationship with art began in 10th grade when 1) I rediscovered that I knew how to draw, and 2) you could be sent to the principal's office for refusing to work in ceramics (it's a dirty process, and I didn't sign up for a dry cleaning bill).

Art brings the happy...to you...your rooms...your relationships (isn't that...cool?). 

So let's discuss...

...for YOU - The Umbrella (No. 2) (Darren Thompson Fine Art) - I like umbrellas, and I like walking and talking to my friends...so I like this painting.  The technique?  I have no clue, but I like it and I would like it on my wall (or a notebook or a bag or my t-shirt, maybe a phone case...because it's cool).

...for your baby's ROOM - Nursery Art Print (Galerie Anais) - The days of decorating a child's room in baseballs or ballerinas are behind us (most of us...no judgement).  The general baby gift is such a bore.  It's time to step out of the box and give from your heART.  Elephants and turtles are everywhere (neighborhood creek, cartoons, the zoo, Discovery Channel).  The child will learn from the art and you will go down in baby shower history (legendary?) .  A gift that GIVES is what every baby's room needs to make the child smart and...cool.

...for your RELATIONSHIPS - Step by Step Art Class (Paint Like Picasso) - Picasso was transitional and...cool.  There was the blue period, then rose, followed by a little geometric with the cubes, etc.  Interesting is an understatement, yet if I painted like him I'd be content with that achievement.  Art class would be the first step.  A fun step if you do it with other people.  I'm a (some) people person, and it's fun to do things with people you like.  What better way to find your inner Picasso than an art class (with wine).  Maybe you want to have a party? Teambuilding for your office?  Couple's night?  Painting offers instant gratification (and no need to call the principal).  The first time, the horse might look a bit tree-ish.  Art is subjective...and cool.  Keep trying.
